I just received some Mobile Fidelity Inner Sleeves to protect my LP's from MusicDirect.com and they included their latest print catalog.

I'm sure this is old news but . . .

. . . of special interest to me (as it is my new addiction :)) was their HALF-OFF SALE on Five foot 15 & 20 Amp Shunyata Diamondback Platinum Power Cords.

I have one on order and will be probably end up selling my 6' Signal Cable MagicPower after I compare the two when it arrives.

Music Direct is also offering a 100% trade-up credit for 3 years if you buy a higher grade Shunyata, and they offer a 100% money back guarantee if you don't like the cable when it arrives.

    Why do you need to protect your LP's from MusicDirect.com?

    Absolutely. I'll PM you before listing. It's a great cable, but will become redundant if I like the Shunyata.

    Yeah, I thought that sentence looked a little odd after I wrote it :)

    In my opinion, these are the best LP condoms you can buy and Music Direct currently has the best price: http://www.musicdirect.com/product/73913 :D

    I've had my first in play and powered up for about 120 hours (15A 5' Shunyata Diamondback Platinum).

    I used it to replace a 6' Signal Cable MagicPower from APC H10 to Little Pinkie Power Supply for a Musical Fidelity X-10v3 Tube Buffer between CD player and pre-amp.

    The sound improvement is subtle, but noticeable across the entire spectrum. Specifically, the bass is a bit more powerful (but certainly not overpowering) and the trebles are clearer.

    NOTE: these are very stout, stiff cables.

    As a side note, when it arrived, there was as code "SUM-10" postcard for a 10% off discount. I ordered another last night for $112.50 + $6.00 shipping (the first was $125.00 + $6.00 without the 10% off).

    I don't know if you could simply type this code in again or not, but it is worth a try for an additional 10% off.

    They also offer the 20A version for about $12 more which is tempting, but I'll bet it is incredibly hard to bend as the 15A is stiff as noted above.
